From Robert Hartman’s book: Charles III, New King, New Court. Inside story:
The four-month exercise to refurbish and alter the crowns ahead of the Coronation is referred internally only as “Operation Patek”.
It involves 3 crowns, each with a wristwatch-themed code-name:
“Patek” refers to the most important of the lot, St Edward’s crown, which will be used to crown the King (it can only be used for a coronation), “Rolex” is the Imperial State Crown to be worn when leaving the abbey and finally “Cartier” which will be worn by the Queen Consort during and after the service.

There you have it, the Royal Court pecking order.

Sounds like very, very old data. Must be like a 1960s marketing effort, you know, like the 'Holy Trinity' marketing scheme over 60 years ago (some still think has any merit other than for historical purposes).

My God, this is 2024 for goodness sake, not the 1960s groovy hip trippy man. ROFLOL

And of course there's Harry and Meghan themselves, referred to respectively as project Invicta and project Steinhart.
